Kulfi Ice Cream Recipe Made Easy

It was last few weeks ago when I tried my hand on preparing Kulfi ice cream at my family get-together. Though skeptical initially about how it will turn out, it was well received and served as a comforting finale to the typical spicy Indian dinner. Creamy yet grainy, its unique texture is in perfect sync with the exotic flavorings of cardamom, saffron and pistachios. The slow-simmering of milk for long hours imparts a nutty caramelized overtone to the ice cream, making it stand out among any regular frozen desserts. While this authentic method is time-consuming, here’s the version of kulfi ice cream recipe made easy! I’m trying to find out a way to cut down fat next time; so stay hooked for its skinny version.
